Feminist and community archives have played a major role in the archival revolution since the 1970s. How have they changed our relationship with the archive? How is the LGBTQI+ archivist redefined? What new practices? For which audiences? What role does the philosophy of the living archive play in this context? In terms of accessibility, archiving emotions and affects? What is the corporeal and collective power of the archive? Archivists, members of the Collectif Archives LGBTQI+, academics and artists will attempt to answer these questions during this round table organised by the Paris IDF LGBTQI+ Archive Centre.
